(b) The appropriate school board of education or school district public library trustees, as applicable, shall ascertain such information contained in subdivision (a) of this section three days before the first day of the distribution of military ballots.
(c) A military ballot shall still be valid if the nomination of any candidate named on the ballot is found invalid at a later date because the nominee withdrew, died or otherwise became ineligible after the date the ballot was transmitted pursuant to section 122.3(e) of this Part, even if the nomination period is reopened as a result thereof.
(d) When the nomination of any candidate named on a military ballot is found invalid subsequent to the transmission of the ballot, no vote cast for any such named candidate shall be counted during the canvassing of ballots at the election.
(e) The failure of the appropriate school board of education or school district public library trustees, as applicable, to include the name of any candidate or any proposition or question on the military ballot shall not affect the validity of the election with respect to the office for which the nomination was made, or the validity of the military ballot as to any other matter.
(f) Military ballots shall be as nearly as practicable, in the same form as an absentee ballot as prescribed in Education Law 2018-a(4) or 2018-b(5).
(g) School districts and school district public libraries, as applicable, shall prepare a list of military voters to whom military ballots have been issued and make such list available for public inspection, consistent with the requirements of Education Law sections 2018-a(6) and 2018-b(7).
